Conditional probability
... Exercise 1: A coin is tossed three times. What is the probability that two heads occur given that • The first outcome was a head. • The first outcome was a tail. • The first two outcomes were heads. • The first tow outcomes were tails. • The first outcome was a head and the third was a head. Exerci ...

Hypothesis Testing
... The null hypothesis, denoted H0, is a statement of the basic proposition being tested. The statement generally represents the status quo and is not rejected unless there is convincing sample evidence that it is false. The alternative or research hypothesis, denoted Ha, is an alternative (to the nu ...

Several authors have considered the problem of finding the best pseudo-Boolean function of degree ≤ k approximating a given pseudo-Boolean function f , where “best” means a least squares criterion. Hammer and Holzman [Hammer and Holzman, 1992] derived a system of equations for finding such a best de ...
